Dunn- nayHudson- yayi don't care what anyone says, i don't want a sub .240 hitter, strikeout machine, who plays putrid defense. he's also a terrible situational hitter. i found an UNBELIEVABLE stat about his inability to hit a simple sacrifice fly:• Eleven times in history has a player hit three sacrifice flies in one game, including Chad Kreuter, and the last being Edgar Martinez in 2002. Then there's Adam Dunn, who has 15 sacrifice flies in his career, two more than Lee has this year. In 2004-05, Dunn went 1,085 plate appearances without a sacrifice fly. He had 65 chances -- runner at third base, less than two outs -- before he finally broke his streak with a fly ball to left field. The crowd at Great American Ballpark cheered him. Dunn raised his arms in triumph. PATHETIC.i believe watching Dunn fail as a National would be incredibly frustrating and frankly infuriating and not worth the occasional homer.
Your boyfriend has 3 sac flies in his career. It's not that big of a deal.
Dunn is a better option than Kory Casto at First. that's all I know.

2 GIDP. 2!!!!! 1,2!!!!! THAT'S IT. OPS of almost 950. Stop making so much sense!
Except that unsourced anecdote fails to mention how many times he got singles, doubles, walks, triples, home runs, or reached on error in those situations. The guy does NOT have problems getting the ball out of the infield. He doesn't hit into DP. My bunk detector went off.
And by the way if we get Dunn, I highly doubt NJ will be here (he said he doesn't want to be a backup).
plan B is clone Elijah Dukes 8 times and have him play every position, including pitcher
Zimmerman would easily have a 110+ RBI season with Dunn batting in front of him. Don't know how many wins that would translate into, though. But runs are runs. We need some runs.
What if we also lower our runs per game allowed to 4.6?
Dunn batting in front of Zimmerman? didn't know Dunn bats #2. interesting. Zimmerman is and always will be our #3 hitter. deal with it.
Or if you used your melon, Zimmerman could be number 5 with Dunn at 4.
Zimmerman is and always will be our #3 hitter. deal with it.
Fact is, despite AZ and Sportsfans dislike of the guy, Dunn is a clear upgrade over Casto/Belliard/Boone at 1B.
